Arrest in Flores Death

Wichita Police have made an arrest in the murder case involving former Kansas State student Daniel Flores. KWCH in Wichita has identified the suspect as Antwon Banks, 31.

Wichita Police Lt. Todd Ojile says the arrest of the man suspected of killing Daniel Flores, 25, followed a Crime Stoppers tip and several interviews. He was arrested at about 10 Wednesday night in the 3900 block of North Woodlawn.

The suspect stabbed himself one time in the stomach when approached by officers, and was taken to a Wichita hospital where he was admitted for observation. Upon his release he’ll be booked into the Sedgwick County jail on felony murder.

Ojile says the suspect is an ex-boyfriend of an employee of the Steckline Communications business. Ojile says they’re not sure why he was there–but do not belive Flores was an intended target.
